| The distribution of extractable manganese, which is likely to be similar to dissolved manganese, in a transect from the mid-shelf of the southeastern East China Sea Shelf across the Kuroshio to the Okinawa Trough was determined in May 1991. In the surface layer above 200 m, the higher concentrations of extractable manganese (5 to 6 nM) are found at the most shoreward station. Mixing between the shelf water and the Kuroshio results in a tongue of manganese-rich water (> 3 nM) extending from the shelf into the Okinawa Trough. In contrast, the Kuroshio surface water and the upwelling Kuroshio subsurface water, both with concentrations of < 3 nM, are manganese-poor. Thus, during upwelling and frontal exchanges, manganese-poor water is imported into the... |
